Madrid Dancers, 198*

The man costume is not far from the parisian 'titi', with the black-and-white cap and trousers. The woman wears a mantilla on her head and a beautiful fringed black shawl on her shoulders. They are dancing the Zarzuela, a Madrid dance -and also a delicious fish dish.

Even though their heads and limbs are made of plastic, they look like clay.

Height: 22 cm (8.8")

From left to right: guitarist from Málaga (Andalucia), bagpipe player from las Asturias, flamenco dancer, castanetes player from Vizcaya, young Pacense.

The flamenco dancer is not the nicest I have ever seen, but my passion for costume dolls started when I bought this one, in 1981.
